Marty Raney. Alaska. Adventure.

Marty Raney is an Alaskan. A mountain climber. A singer/songwriter. These passions: mountains, and music, have united at the summit of Denali. Taking it to the next level, he built a guitar shaped like the state of Alaska. A log home builder, a stone mason. A subsistence hunter and a fisherman. And at the end of every day, a hardworking Alaskan.

The call of the wild is heard by few,Its whisper rides the wind,He turns his head and heart true North,And the cold breeze beckons him.He burns the bridges behind him,But the flames light the path indeed,Off to the edge of nowhere,Last of a dying breed.~Marty Raney

Marty Raney. Music.

“It was always about Alaska. It was always about the adventure…” ~Marty Raney

As an Alaskan mountain guide, Marty Raney is the only person to have carried his guitar to the top of Denali, playing and singing from the highest point in North America. Multiple times. Over the course of his 40+ years in Alaska, ranging from Ketchikan to Point Barrow and from Kodiak to Coldfoot, an eclectic body of Alaskan music has been created. His songs have found their way into radio, TV, and film. Those interested in truly original music, written and performed by Alaskan, Marty Raney, are invited to listen.
